Welcome aboard panzer, we're glad to have you join us.
After you take them out to the range this weekend, you'll have to let us all know how much fun you had.
Good shooting and best wishes.

Malta, what a beautiful place. I was there while I was in the U.S. Navy. I have fond memories of the fun raiser we performed at. It was held at a bowling alley to raise funds for some children at an orphanage. Warm, wonderfull people.
Welcome aboard. Enjoy.

had great fun shooting the 9 ml 247 grouped well with it at 10 meters as thats the limit
up to now we can shoot , functioned flawlessly fired 125 rounds with it . i am happy it is part of my collection . noticed i have slight problem with the grip round the back of the pistol grip a small patch of rubber peeled of and i saw it quite strange and so early being still brand
new , i will talk to the agent and see what he says but i will make him change the frame for me if it keeps going , anyways i am happy i have it now as i shoots quite well with it . i was shooting rounds of 17 which i got all on target in the black patch and when i shot on small white patchs groups of 5 rounds i was grouping at 10 cm round each patch .will keep you posted and thks again guys ...
